(COI’YniGUT, 1886, BV THE A. N. KELLOGG Newspaper Company.] CHAPTER IV.— Continued. “Why did you stop me here to men tion so disagreeable a subject?” “To tell ye that I know ye, an’ to tell ye I was yer friend, ye bet. I'll never go back on ye for any thing in the past, ole boy, but stick to ye like a leech.” Bill paused and smiled, and winked in a manner that puzzled Walter. “How long have you been working for Mr. Jack Hawkins?” asked Walter. “About three years? Do ye know Jack?” “No, sir.” “Well, sir, ye ought to. Jack is a jolly fellow; game, too. He never de serts a friend and is ns brave as a lion.” “I have only heard him snoken of incidentally,” said Walter, still puzzled at the manner of Bill Martin. “Does old Miles gjve any holidays?” “He has not yet. I have only been working for him two weeks.” “Not a Saturday afternoon?” “No, sir.” “Then he’s an old tyrant Now, 3*oung chap,” said Bill, more mysteri ous than ever, “I have got moro friends here. I want 3 011 to form theii acquaintance. They are all joliy good fellows, know how to keep their own secrets, arc brave and stick together We are a kind o’ brotherhood, ye know. I want you to see us and lie one o’ us. Will ye come an’ see ns when ye kin?” Walter, though completely thunder struck, assented, and then drove on, while Bill, with a series of grins anti winks, retired into the woods. Little did Walter Brownfield dream of the ter rible character of the brotherhood al luded to by Bill Martin, or the trial it would cause hint. CHAPTER V. JOHN MILES’ DIFFICULTIES. Walter Brownfield was soon on inti mate terms with the family of Mr. Miles. Ilis urbane air and good sense were features especially attractive. Mr. Miles had many intricate business affairs that he was in the habit of going to Bushville and paying a lawyer to at tend to, which his hired hand could accomplish equally as well. “You seem pretty good in figgers,” said the farmer one day, “to save me I can’t figger up the interest.” “That’s an easy matter,” said Wal ter, with a smile, as he took up one of the notes and glanced over it. Com puting interest had been his trade for so long that a note in partial payments seemed like an old friend. “I- inkey counted itnp, but lam afraid she was not right,” said the farmer. Mr. Miles, like all successful business men, was particular to have all the in terest his note called for. Walter spread the note out before him on a table, took a pencil and pa per, and in a few moments had the cor rect answer. “That is just what Pinkey made it,” said the farmer. “.'ho was correct, then,” said the youth, and he proceeded to explain every thing in connection with compu tation of interest and deduction of par tial payments. “Try the others,” said the farmer, “an’ i'll call Pinkey in to see if that is the way she does it." Pinkey, with her beautiful form and face, high forehead and large dark eyes, entered at her father's call. Her ap pearance made Walter a little nervous, and he was far more liable to make mistakes than if she had not been pres ent He explained his method to her, and at the conclusion he informed the farmer that his daughter knew as much about it as himself. Pinkey smiled a sweet, gracious smile, and Mr. Miles said she was the only ohj of his children "wlio’d take to book lamin’.” “I think, sir, you can always safely rely on her calculations,” said Walter, as the girl retired to her room. It was not only in affairs of interest, but in all business matters, that the farmer found his hired hand proficient. In commercial law, of trade, rules of finance, the important political ques tions of the day, Walter to the Miles family seemed thorough. “If I only kno wed what you know,” said John Miles one day, with a sigh, “It ’ud relieve me of a deal of trouble.” “I should like to help you all I can; what is the trouble with you?” asked Waiter. The speakers were alona in the hay loft reclining on the fresh mown hay. The manger had been filled with hay and the horses below were crunching their oats and corn with an occasional wisp of hay to give variety to the meal. . „ At Walter’s question John rolled his form over until he lay upon his back. “I don't know if yc could help me or not if ve’d try,” he said. “ I might, but 1 assure you it will be a miracle for me to help you unless 1 know wherein you require aid.” “ I want to learn to talk,” said John. “ You can talk.” “Yes, 1 know I can talk. So can a goose swim an’ fly, but not like a bird or fish. I’m awkward an’ I know that I don’t tell thiugs right,” said John, with a blush on his face. “ Your language could be improved gome.” said Walter, with a smile. “Wall, that is just what I want to learn. How is people to improve their language when a feller’s got no teach er?” said John. “ You could teach yourself, or I could Instruct you; but, John, why have you so recently found yourself defective in the art of speech, and why this sudden notion to improve?” John rubbed the perspiration from his brow and said: “Cause 1 want to be as 1 kin talk to anybody, it makes no difference who it is a—a man, or a gal. Them Bushvillc fellers kin talk their grammar and g : t away with a feller. “I rather suspect that there is some young lady with whom you wish to converse,” said U alter, smiling. * John brushed his florid face with the sleeve of his shirt, and, after a momen tary pause, said: “May be it's so, and may be it aint.” “Admit the truth of it, John,” said Walter. “Is there not some young lady iu Bushvillc for whose sake you want to polish up your language?” John turned his face to the wall and said, in an awkward way: “Well, then, what cf there was, an’ what ef she lived in Bushville an’ her name was Susie Black, could vou help a feller any?” “I might,” said Waiter, with * smile. “Then you’ve got the hull secret o’ mv case.” “You want to cultivate your lan guage then, so that in conversing with Miss Black you may cope with those young men at Bushville.” “That’s jist it,” said John, turning his face toward Walter. “Ye see them Bushville chaps just lake the shine out o’ a feller that’s been raised among horses, oxen and mules.” “All right, John,” Walter answered. “Now, in the first place, let me crit icise you some in your pronunciation.” “ Hold on there,” said John, “what do ye mean by them big words?” *• Criticise means to judge, to exam ine and point out your faults.” “Yes, in course,” raid John, who hardly understood Walter yet. “You are in the habit of calling a girl a gal.” “Ain’t that right?” “No, you should never use it.” “1 won’t then.” ‘•You seem defi ient in grammar; you frequently use the objective ‘them’ in the nominative case.” “Yes,” said John, floundering in a sea of uncertainty as to the meaning of his tutor. ‘Woii do not seem to know that the verb must agree with the noun in num ber and person, and frequently use a plural noun as subject and singular verb ’ ’ “Hold on, hold on,” said John, reaching out his hand despairingly. “I’m afraid ye’re given mo too big a dose to take all to one’t.” “Why, I’ve not given you an)- tiling yet.” “Then I’d better give it up. I can t learn all that in a lifetime. 1 kin stand sense talk, but when it comes to nouns by plural and singular, I cave in. Pinkey kin learn all about them things, but I never will; I hate ’em. The teacher flogged me six times one day, eos 1 didn't know what a noun was, and I’ve hated the thing over since. Darn a noun, I want nothing to do with ’em.” Walter smiled and said: “But John don't you love Susie Black?” “1 do, by Jupiter, I do!” “Will you not put yourself to some inconvenience for her sake?” “I will, you bet I will.” “Do you not wish to speak as cor rectly as those young fellows at Bush ville, the clerks, the bankers and school teachers?” a’s. ’ “Then why not trv?” “1 will.” Walter now saw at once that John's teacher had made a mistake in giving him abstract rules, so he commenced to give him object lessons. He showed him the difference between false and correct sentences, commencing with the most simple; “I are” and “1 am,” were explained to John, and “they are,” showing him practically that the verb must agree with the noun in number. Then step by step, lie taught him without a (took until in a few weeks there was a vast improve ment in John’s pronunciation and speech. He declared lie would soon be able to talk as well as Pinkey. CHAPTER VI. A SUNDAY IN inn COUNTRY. rreston Flat, as we have said, was a long strip of country almost complete ly isolated from the rest of the world. It was divided into four school districts lying cast and west, up and down the creek. These districts constitute as many distinct neighborhoods. Each had a congregation that assembled once a month at the school-house, for the purpose of hearing the word of God. The Flat could only support one preacher, and it took him one month to make the round. Rev. Mr. Ban croft was one of those pioneer Metho dist ministers, who sought by long, loud sermons and honest hard work to drive religion into his congregation. It was the third Sunday after Waltei'’s residence with the Miies’ family that Mr. Bancroft was to preach at their school-house. Great preparations were made the day before in their way of cooking, baking and having tho house work completed, so there would be but little to do on the day following. “Ye arc going to meetin’ to-day are ye not?” asked John Miles of Walter, one Sabbath morning. “1 suppose so.” The day was one of those mild, beautiful autumn days that follow the first frost. The sun had lost its fierce heat, yet retained enough warmth to be comfortable. “Guess, then, yc want a horse to ride,” said John, thoughtfully. “How far is it?” “Nigh on to two miles.” “Do you all go on horseback or in the wagon?” “Oh, father and mother’ll go in tho buggy; but these young folks prefer a horse. Ye see a feller then is independ ent like; he can just ride wherever he pleases.” Walter did not thoroughly under stand John’s meaning until he had passed a Sabbath at the country church. He was furnished a fine, dark bay horse, a saddle and bridle and trap pings, such as delight the hearts of country youth. John and Ben Miles saddled the most fractious horses on the farm. Nothing so delights a young country gentleman as to ride a horse. The wilder the belter, and they usually have them so well trained that the moment they come in sight of a young lady t lie animal, to use their expression, “be gins cuftin’ up.” A more sober animal was saddled for Pinkey, and Walter was sure lh.it her beauty was enhanced by the long llow ijyor riding habit and jaunty hat. 3ohn and Ben were both busy trying to mount their half broken steeds. It was no easy matter and required con siderable “woa” “woaing,” and stand still, you little fool,” before the feat could be accomplished. Walter, seeing that neither one of the brothers could aid the sister to mount, led lu r horse around to the stile, where she stood like a statue of beauty, aud assisted her into the saddle. Mr. and Mrs. Miles were in the open buggy driving down the road at an easy pace, and both John and Ben, having mounted their steeds, galloped away more as if they were on a fox chase than going to church. Their reckless conduct set Pinkey’s horse to prancing and Walter sprang into his saddle and riding at her side took the rein near the bit and soothed the ani mal until he became quiet. Pinkey smiled graciously, and thanked* Walter. They rode along to gether just behind the buggy, which sent up clouds of dust from the revolv ing wheels. “Why do your brothers nde such unruly horses?” nske ! Walter. “They umst be dangerous not only to them selves, but the ladies and children who are traveling along the road.” “ They are in love with danger.’’ re plied Pinker. “Both are reckless as to consequences, and the advice ot parents or friends i- not heeded. ’ Scarcely had she spoken ere the clat ter of hoofs was heard coming up be hind tlidtn, and Walter had only time to seize the rein of Pinkey’s horse and hold it from running away when two or three farmer boys, mounted on half broken colt', dashed by. Seeing that the young lady's horse was frightened thev yelled like Indians. “I never before saw such ill-man nered young men,” said Walter. Pinkey laughed and explained that such was the custom of the country.. “Then I wonder you are not afraid to venture out on horseback.” “Oh, I am used to it,” she said. “Arc you never frightened?” “No, sir.” “Will not your horse run away “He mirrlft.” “Would you not be thrown from tho saddle? ’ “I hardly think so. I never was thrown.” “You arc an excellent horsewoman. ” “All girls raised in this portion of the country are so considered,” she an swered. “But you do not approve of such conduct?” “No, sir; it is too rude to meet the approval of any one; especially 011 our way to church.” From every cross road anil forest path they met ohl folks, young folks and children on their way to church. Dressed in their holiday clothes, some ill becoming and ill lilting, yet all clean. Some in wagons, more on horseback and a goodly number on foot. Walter soon learned the customs of the young horsemen, and although lie could not approve of their reckless rid ing could not but admire it. The school-house was in the midst of a beautiful grove of tall, straight young trees which furnished hitching posts for all. In this grove were wagons, carts and buggies, and a large number of saddle horses. He assisted Pinkey to alight at the stile and hitched her horse at a convenient sapling. Then lie accompanied the young lady to the door of the school-house, when she passed in, taking a seat on the ladies’ side, and he on the other. As usual in country churches there were several loafers and loungers wait ing on the outside of the building They were men and boys who attend church merely to sec who is tie re, but who never hear a word or gospel preached. Among them he roeognized Bill Martin and shuddered as those baleful eyes were fixed on him. There was more than one nod and wink exchanged among the women with marriageable daughters, as the new farm hand entered with Pinkey. Mrs. Goss, who sat by the side of Mrs. Jones, wondered why Mrs. Miles would allow her daughter to go to meeting with tramps. The mar riageable young daughters, neverthe less, looked with no little envy on Pin key's companion. His slender form and urbane air contrasted strangely with the rough uncouth youth of the neighborhood. His manner was gen tlemanly and quiet, while the illiterate, ill-bred young man of the country sat chewing gum and springing up every few minutes to run out of doors, much to tho annoyance of Rev. Mr. Ban croft, ovho was endeavoring to in terest his congregation. When the services were over Walter stood at the door awaiting the exit of his companion. Some one touched lnm 011 the elbow, and upon looking around ho beheld Bill Marlin at his side. Those eyes with the same evil look were fixed upon him; the pernicious grin on his face betrayed the evil thought of his heart and sent a chill over the frame of our hero. “Don’t be uneasy,” he said, in a low tone “ I ain't goirf to give you away.” How hateful he seemed, and Walter spurn al him with the contempt he de served. Pinkey made her appearance, took the arm of the new farm hand, and they walked through the crowd, that had gathered about the door to the stiles. Waiter assisted Pinkey to don iter riding skirt and mount her horse, then sprung upon his own animal and rode by her side. The woods were alive with reckless horsemen, and their shouts would make one think that a grand fox chase had been inaugurated. We can not describe that ride home. Walter refers to it to-day as the hap piest hour of his life. What did they talk about? Of the trees, the blue sky, the dee]) forest and fairy-like dells; but be the subject what it might, their eyes spoke a deeper, holier lan guage than words can. The glances given and returned were the commun ings of fond hearts. When Walter as ; sisted the beautiful daughter of his employer to alight, his hand trembled as it touched hers. The road seemed far too short, and lie wished it would extend indefinitely, and that Pinkey might be his companion. No words were spoken, but each understood the other, and Walter felt troubled at the thought When she had dismounted, Pinkey ran up to her room to undress and cry, while Walter led the horses to the barn, and to contemplate his own sad fate —a cruel fate that made him love an object so far above him, CHAPTER VII. BILL MARTIN’S VISIT. The next day after the preaching at Preston Flat school-house, Pinkey Miles was alone in her mother’s kitch en. (In Preston Flat kitchens always belonged to the wife, regardless of all rules of law either common or statu tory.) Pinkey's mind was busy with thoughts half perplexing and half pleas ing. A faint flush occasionally suffus ed her check, followed by a look of per plexing doubt. No remark had been made in her presence concerning her companion of the day before, yet, proud as she was of him, there was something so strange and unknown about him that site did not know whether it was right or not. “lie has always shown himself to be a gentle man,” she finally said to herself, as she sat by the kitchen tabic, looking out of the window. “There is something so manly about him; his face is so frank, open and honest that he could not have donte wrong, even if he did come here as a tramp.” The teakettle sang mer rily, giving forth a hot vapor that filled the room. Pinkey seemed, if possible, more beautiful than ever in her neat kitchen habit and clean white collar, Remarks, site well knew, had been made by the neighbors concerning Walter Brownfield, but until proven to be an unworthy character she deter mined to defend him. The window at which she was sit ting overlooked the large meadow lands that lay between the farms of Mr. Miles and Jack Hawkins. She espied a man coming across the field; his shambling gait and rough appearance at once co’ vineed her that it was the worthless Bill Martin.

Readers of the Courant- Amkrican : In common with many publishers and editors, we have been accustomed to look upon certain statements which w r e have seen in our columns as merely adroit ad vertising. Consequently we feel justified in taking the liberty of printing a few points from a private letter recently received from one of our largest patrons, as a sort of confes sion of faith to our readers. We quote: “We have convinced ourselves that by telling what we know to be true, we have produced at last a permanent conviction in the public mind. Seven years ago we stated what the national disease of this country was, and that it was rapidly in creasing. Three years ago we stated that a marked check had been given it. “The statistics of one of the largest life insurance companies of this country shows that in 1883 and 1884, the mortality from kidney disorders did not increase over the previous years: other companies stated the same thing. It is not presumptuous for us to claim credit for checking these ravages. “Seven years ago we stated that the condition of the kidneys wa9 the key to the condition of health : within the past five years all careful life insurance companies have conceded the truth of this statement, for, whereas, ten years ago, chemical an alysis to determine the condition of the kidneys was not required, to day millions of dollars in risks are refused, because chemical examination discovers unsus pected diseases of the kidneys. “Seven years ago we stated that the rav ages of Bright’s Disease were insignificant compared with other unsuspected disorders of kidneys of many misleading names; that ninety-three per cent, of human ail ments are attributable to deranged kid neys, which fills the blood witn uric acid, or kidney poison, which causes these many fatal diseases. “The uric acid, or kidney poison, is the real cause of the majority ofcases of paral ysis, apoplexy, heart disease, convulsions, pneumonia, consumption, and insanity; over half the victims of consumption, are first the victims of diseased kidneys. “When the recent death of an honored exofficial of the United States was an nounced, his physicians said thatalthough he was suffering from Bright’s Disease, that was not the cause of death. He was not frank enough to admit that the apo plexy which overtook him in his bed, was the fatal effect of the kidney poison in the blood, which had eaten away the sub stance of the arteries and brain: nor was Logan’s physician honest enough to state that his fatal rheumatism was caused by kidney acid in the blood. “It the doctors would state in official re ports the original cause of death, the peo ple of this country would be alarmed, yes, nearly panic stricken, at the feaful mor ta’ity from kidney disorders.” Th# writers of the above letter give these frets to the public simply to justify the claims that they have made, that “if the kidneys and liyer are kept in a healthy condition by the use of Warner’s safe cure, which hundreds of thousands haye proved to be a specifie, when all other received the endorsement of the highest medical talent in Europe, Australasia and America, many a life would be prolonged and the happiness of the people preserved. It is successful with so many different diseases because it and it alone, can re move the urica acid from the blood through the kidneys.” Our readers are familiar with the prep aration named. Commendation thereof has often ap peared in our columns. We believe it to be one of the best, if not the best ever manufactured. We know the proprietors are men of character and influence. AVe are certain they have awakened a wide-spread interest in the public mind concerning the importance of the kidneys. We believe with them that they are the key to health, and that for their restora tion from disease and maintenance in health, there is nothing equal to this great remedy. The proprietors say they “do not glory in this uniyersal prevalence of disease, but having started out with the purpose of spreading the merits of Yi r arner’s safe cure before the world, because it cured our senior proprietor, who was given up by doctors as incurable, we feel it our duty to state the facts and leave the pub lic to its own inferences. We point to our claims, and to their public and uni versal verification with pride, and if the public does not believe what we say, we tell them to ask their friends and neigh bors what ihey think about our prepara tions.” As stated above, we most cordially commend the perusal of this correspon dence by our readers, believing that in so doing, we are fulfilling a simple public obligation. A Publisher’* Statement Now that the season of Whooping Cough, Colds, Sore Throats, Bronchitis and Hoarseness is upon us, it would be well to consider what D. C. Talbot, Publisher of the Wisconsin Statesman” says of Humphreys’ Homeopathic Specific No. Twenty: “I take pleasure in making the following unsolicited state ment respecting the treatment of AVhoop ing Cough in my own family. My child, who, five or six weeks ago,"was exposed to Whooping Cough, came down with it. At the same time, the two older children were in the same condition, and a serious time was anticipated; but by following the directions given in Humphreys’ “Manual” simply using No. Twenty for the treatment of this dangerous dis ease, all were completely cured in three days. Indeed, so far as we haye tested it this Specific ha3 most ably sustained the recomendutiun of its author, Hr. Humphreys, in every case.” He did not know that physicians constantly use it. KIDNEY COMPLAINT. For over six years I have ’-een a terrible sufferer from a troublesome kidney com plaint, for the relief of which I have spent over $240 without benefit; the most noted so-called remedies proving failures. The use of one single bottle of B. B. R. has been marvelous, giving more relief than all other treatment combined It is a quick cure, while others, if they cure at all, are in the distant future.

If Tried in the Crucible, WKti About twenty years ago I discovered a little sore on my cheek, and the doctors pro nounced it cancer. I have tried a number of physicians, out without receiving any perma nent benefit. Among the number were one or two specialists. The medicine they applied was like lire to the sore, causing intense pain. I saw a statement in the papers telling what S. S. S. had done for others similarly afflicted. I procured some at once. Before I had used the second bottle the neighbors could notice that my cancer was healing up. My general health hail been oad for two or three years—l baa a hacking cougn ana spit blood contin ually. I had a severe pain in my breast. After taking six bottles of S. S. S. my eongh left me jind I grew stouter than I had been for several years. My cancer has healed over all bat a little spot about the size of a half dime, and it is rapidly disappearing. I would advise every one with cancer to give S. S. S. a fair trial. Mhs. NANCY J.
